   Right now the home page of my blog is the blog itself. I want to make a different page as my home page, and the blog one of the sub pages or categories of the site.

   For example, when people go to my site http://www.abc.com, they'll see a home page, and on the page there are buttons (categories) such as HOME, BLOG, TRAVEL, PHOTOGRAPHY, etc.

   Anybody could teach me how to do this? Many thanks in advance!

   I saw on wordpress.com that you could "create an entire web site using pages on WordPress.com, with a custom home page and your blog as one of the sub-pages".

   Any experienced users here?

   hey xlaowel, his is very easy.

   First,
   Create "PAGE" that you want to be your main page, that people are brought to when they access your domain....

   then create the Page, which you want your Posts, "Blog" to go to, shouldnt be a Sub page, unless you want it is a sub page.

   then go to Settings, > Reading "in the left side on the admin panel..

   then click the radio button next to " A static page (select below) "

   then from the drop down menu directly below the radio button, select the PAGE, which you created which you want to be your STATIC, Main home page.

   then from the second drop down menu, select the page when you want your posts to go to.

   there we go that should do it.
